For Toronto, a realistic annual fee budget is about CAD 45,000 per child at senior level, with most schools clustering from roughly CAD 41,900 to CAD 48,700; across the schools with overall figures, the median sits near USD 32,400, with a fairly tight middle spread of about USD 30,200 to USD 32,900. If you are planning a five-year posting, the city’s median fee growth rate of 5.7% a year suggests that today’s bill will not stay put. In practice, families can choose from a market split mainly between Canadian and IB schools, with a smaller American contingent, plus isolated Ontario, OSSD and French bilingual options. Admission is genuinely pressured rather than impossible: the current label is High, with roughly two-thirds of assessed schools constrained and four schools already on waitlists.
